    Hi Piq, hope you are feeling better. Have you been to the stables? If so how did you get on?

    Hedgehogs ?

    My "home" on the forum Hamster - It's like this one with friendly folk on. All of us are women (I believe!) of different ages and circumstances

    http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=1384709

    Hope I've done the link thingy right.
    We do knitting and crochet for different charities, the hedgehogs were very cute and fun and I have just knitted my first boob

    Did I just hear a thud?

    Thank you k2tog! (I'm guessing that's knit to together) You have made me laugh out loud, firstly at the thought of hamster thudding on a Monday morning and secondly at the thought of you knitting boobs :rotfl::rotfl:Is one allowed to ask why, or will the answer be disappointing rather than raunchy?

    ...and thank you for your kind words, they made me feel much better. I will tackle the extra expenses and try not to put anymore onto the debt. However, if I have to, so be it. It will not be random silly spending but essential spending and it will get paid off as soon as possible.

    I always ate my childrens's chocolate, bad for their teeth...:rolleyes:

    You're right about the name!
    Sadly, it isn't a rauchy answer (unless I lie!) midwives use them to demo breast feeding and sometimes women with mastectomies use them instead of the silicone prosthetics. Can't wait to see DH's face when I ask him to take a picture of my boobs though :rotfl:
    My children have very good teeth and my bottom is wide - must mean I'm very committed to their dental care :rotfl:
    Take care Piq
  • I dont like chocolate - does that mean I am a bad mum??

    Hopes the shoulder isnt too bad today my dear - feels a bit like two steps forward and one step back at the moment.

    Silly question but are you still thinking of putting in some tubs for herbs and a few veggies? Or has the mad wall of doom put a stop to all the lovely patio talk - that and the door of death losing its seal - grr to your house at the moment. Its being most naughty.

    Stripey foot tapping at Piq's naughty house.

    Please though tell me you didn't bring down the end of your house by whipping hamster too much.............................

    You are not a bad mum at all, but you should send me your childrens chocolate, save their teeth....

    Hamster's disappeared again, suspect it's the knitted boobs this time - thudded somewhere, no doubt!

    Have decided to be realistic rather than depressed, the debt will go down, albeit a little slower, perhaps it will go up a little bit first though!

    My French Tarragon has come back!! I thought it was dead but it's not - hurrah! Will be doing some work in the garden, but the shoulder injury is going to slow things down quite considerably.

    I saw the Captain at the weekend, he's okay, no nasty side effects for him. He was back in with the miniture horses this morning! Jumping six fences is not a problem....

    You are all very good to me, thank you. Things sometimes seem a little overwhelming, so glad I have you all :heartsmil

    Hmmm, maybe that's why my bottom is wide..... no can't be :rotfl:chocolate couldn't be so unkind....

    Suspect your DH is going to be disappointed about photographing your boobs :rotfl:
